  • "Plex’s biggest strength is its ability to integrate our manufacturing plants within and across our plants in the United States and Mexico. We are considerably more efficient
    after integrating PLCs, allowing our operators to function with less manual interaction."

    Sam Wintz - IT Manager, Batesville Tool & Die
  • "Once our first wave of users experienced the greater control over production quality and engineering, they requested that we roll it out across all of our operations—right down to the production floor. And they continue to contribute new ideas on processes that we can move to Plex to make them more efficient."

    Eduardo Arana - Deputy Managing Director, Eurotranciatura México
  • "I spend about 30 percent of my time driving continuous improvements for us in Plex, but those are all value-added activities—and I’ve eliminated all the data entry I used to do."

    Scott Hankamp - Operations Manager, A&K Finishing
